What Do You NEED

Hmmmmm, methinks. Is the purpose of church to fulfill my needs? No, really, seriously - let's think about this. Yes, we need church, but the purpose of church is not to fulfill our needs. The purpose of the church is to be, in some sense, God's presence on this earth. We therefore serve it, not the other way around.

We go to and are active in church because such is a necessary expression of our faith in Christ. It is about obedience.

If we have a need today it is to learn to do things out of obedience and not out of felt need.
